“NANS Senate, in the communiqué, applauded Federal Government and in particular the Federal Ministry of Works, Power and Housing under Mr. Babatunde Fashola for the Energising Education Project(EEP).

“The EEP project will be of immense benefit to Nigerian students; therefore we call for the unconditional lift of embargo on the execution of the project.

“The Senate reminds Federal Ministry of Power that public tertiary institutions in Nigeria is of 3 categories and over 254 in number who are affiliate member of NANS there by express strong dissatisfaction on the choice of only 38 Universities.’’
